Customer Interaction Management combines Cisco technologies including Cisco Unified


Communications Manager, Cisco Ethernet and wireless IP telephony, and Cisco partner technology.

responsiveness produces quantifiable profits for banks. Also included in the Customer Interaction

empower and educate branch staff, inform the customer, and simplify the interaction between the
bank and its customers
